Now that you have attended your first classes, let's take some time to reflect on them. Think about the following:
The first week is the best time to add or drop a course, without associated fees to pay.
*If you decide to add a course, consider talking with the instructor to see what you've missed. This will give you a better understanding of the course and open communications with your professor.
To add / drop a course online, follow the instructions below:
How to contact faculty and visit them during office hours
Your professors really do want to get to know you. They are here to serve you and your educational needs. Creating professional relationships with them will open up many opportunities for you. Later on you may require letters of recommendation for school or a job and your professor will be more likely to do so if you spend some time with them. Consider stopping by for extra help with course material or just to say hello.
Your professor should always have the dates and times of their office hours on the course syllabus. You can also visit the CUSP website and click on Faculty, to see if they submitted their hours.

West Virginia Lottery Commission officials are taking a realistic view of declining revenue from legalized gambling in our state. But do legislators who have been able to rely on gambling to balance the state's budget have a plan for continued losses? If so, it is not apparent.
Competition from new casinos in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland held lottery revenue to $1.33 billion during the fiscal year that ended June 30. That is $120 million less than during the previous year.
It could have been worse - another $190 million worse, according to the commission - had construction of a new gambling venue in Youngstown, Ohio, not been held up.
But that casino will open, eventually, and even more revenue will be lost at the two Northern Panhandle casinos.
Again, Lottery Commission officials expect the situation will grow worse. Legislators and Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin need to develop a comprehensive budget plan based on a realistic expectation of gambling revenue for the future.

The star from one of the most respected comedy sitcoms in television history, Everybody Loves Raymond, will have you rolling with laughter.
This American actor, stand-up comedian, screenwriter and voice actor, is best known for his roles in the Ice Age film series and the TNT comedy-drama Men of a Certain Age.
This actor, writer, producer and comedian earned three Emmys, four People's Choice Awards and an American Comedy Award.
Romano admits he always knew he could make his friends laugh but never really gave stand-up comedy any serious thought until one fateful open-mic night at a New York comedy club in 1984. He did well, the bug bit hard and Romano was smitten. After various odd jobs, including working as a futon mattress delivery man and bank teller by day and comedian by night, he decided to leave the 9-to-5 ranks and pursue comedy full time.

25 Bloggers Who Are Changing the WorldThere are plenty of large charitable organizations we love that have been deftly using social media to bring about change — think March of Dimes or ONE — but what about the everyday heroes? The moms and dads using their voices to create bootstrap movements for the causes they love? We think the world needs to know about them.
Working on everything from domestic violence to AIDS awareness to mental health and pro-family policies, most of these social media mavens started with a single idea that grew into so much more. They've created non-profit organizations, planned charitable events, and served as forum leaders and policy changers — all while empowering their readers to act. In between chronicling their kids' field trips and flu shots on their own personal blogs, these parents still find the time to speak out on social issues, raise awareness, reduce stigma, and, ultimately, save lives. They're simply inspiring.
There is so much good happening in the social media space today that it was nearly impossible to limit our list to just 25 parents. Because of this, Babble chose the following 25 parents as examples of the kind of amazing job many of you are doing when it comes to using social media to champion causes in your communities. We have not ranked these parents, as they — and you — are all wonderful in their own right.
Without further ado, here are Babble's top 25 parent bloggers who are changing the world through social media, listed in alphabetical order. We hope you find inspiration in what they do, and feel emboldened to go out and make your own change in the world. — Babble Editors

Jennifer James
Who she is: Jennifer is a powerhouse innovator. She's the originator of Mom Bloggers Club and Mom Blog magazine. She recently launched Mom Bloggers for Social Good to bring together mom bloggers from around the world and collectively use social media to promote the work of non-profit organizations. It's no surprise that this isn't Jennifer's first rodeo when it comes to the social good space. She's traveled to Haiti to support Macy's Heart of Haiti project and to Kenya as part of ONE Moms. And she recently was awarded a National Press Foundation Global Vaccines Press Fellowship, which pays for her to attend and cover vaccine-related events held by leading global health organizations.
Why we love her: In just a few months with her new social good project, Jennifer has already gathered a coalition of more than 800 bloggers from 16 countries and developed partnerships with such organizations as the National Breast Cancer Foundation, the United Nations Foundation, and Malaria No More. She also blogs, by the way, for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

The Primate Fiasco to Perform Free Outdoor Concert July 28
For Immediate Release
July 14, 2009
The Primate Fiasco is a self-described "psychedelic Dixieland" band from Northampton, Massachusetts. Catch this exciting group on Tuesday, July 28, at 6 pm, during the final outdoor concert at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute. The concert is free and held on the Clark's expansive south lawn (picnics, blankets, and lawn chairs encouraged). The Clark's Café will sell barbeque fare and the galleries will remain open until 6 pm on this evening. In the event of rain, the concert will be held in the auditorium. Concert admission is free.
The quintet features Nick Borges on trumpet, Dave DelloRusso on banjo and harp, Steve Yarbro on saxophone and clarinet, Tim Bouchet on tuba, and Chris Trevethan on drums. While the band members do perform traditional Dixieland jazz, they frequently use their traditional instruments to produce music that is often recognized as funk, reggae, bluegrass, hip hop, rock, latin, or even trance, however, the band members are hesitant to label their music, and instead simply call it "music to have fun to."
Concertgoers will enjoy the Primate Fiasco's entertaining antics. Dance contests and audience participation rule their family-friendly performances. Their unique sound attracts audiences of all ages and demographics. With influences as diverse as The Beatles, John Coltrane, and Sublime, their Clark performance is sure to offer something for everyone.
This series is supported in part by Williamstown Savings Bank.
On view this summer at the Clark is Dove/O'Keeffe: Circles of Influence. Georgia O'Keeffe burst onto the New York art scene in 1916 and captured the imagination of people around the world, not only with incredible artistic talent, but through her bohemian spirit as well. Experience this distinctly American artist's early works with those of modernist Arthur Dove, whom she credited as having the most significant role in the formation of her abstract works. Also on view is Through the Seasons: Japanese Art in Nature featuring traditional screens and scrolls and contemporary ceramics, emphasizing the inspirational role of nature in Japanese art. Clark docent Adele Rodbell will lead tours of Through the Seasons at 4:30 pm on Tuesdays in July. Cost is free with gallery admission.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, MA. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday, 10 am to 5 pm (daily in July and August). Admission June 1 through October 31 is $12.50 for adults, free for children 18 and under, members, and students with valid ID. Admission is free November through May. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit clarkart.edu.

Associate Professor Todd Sayre is a highly accomplished academic whose research examines ethics in financial accounting and sustainable, socially responsible business. Dr. Sayre is a Certified Public Accountant with a Ph.D. in Business Administration, as well as holding additional professional certification in sustainability reporting, which was granted by the Global Reporting Initiative.
Dr. Sayre's recent articles turn the lens on topical issues in the digital space, exploring the usefulness of traffic measures across internet sectors and debating the value-relevance of financial and nonfinancial information for online businesses. In addition, they explore relevant financial topics, arguing the case that shareholder ownership is in fact a myth and discussing the implications on accounting.
Having received recognition for his achievements in financial research by the Western Region American Accounting Association, as well as receiving the Outstanding Research Award from the School of Management, Professor Sayre hopes his students will adopt a similar rigor for directing their knowledge of accounting towards causes that help drive meaningful, sustainable change.
During the 2013-2014 academic year, Dr. Sayre will be taking a sabbatical leave, during which time he will be working on two articles, each in collaboration with a USF School of Management peer – one with J.P. Allen and one with Carol Graham. Dr. Sayre and his colleagues will challenge the belief that the concept of maximizing shareholder value should be the primary goal of business, and argue that this concept should have a reduced role in business education. This work is intended to show educators and students that they can teach and consider business strategies that create environmental and societal benefits.

Prairie Fare: All your freezer questions answered"I left cans of food in my garage after grocery shopping and they froze. Can I eat the food?" "My frozen meat looks a little grayish. Is it safe to eat?" "I partially defrosted some meat for dinner, but we have a family emergency and are leaving town. Can I refreeze the meat?"
By: Julie Garden-Robinson, NDSU Extension Service
"I left cans of food in my garage after grocery shopping and they froze. Can I eat the food?"
"My frozen meat looks a little grayish. Is it safe to eat?"
"I partially defrosted some meat for dinner, but we have a family emergency and are leaving town. Can I refreeze the meat?"
The answer to the question in each scenario: "It depends." All of these questions need a little clarification before answering.
Scenario 1:
If cans of food accidentally freeze in your garage during cold winter months, most of the time the food is safe, as long as the can remains intact. However, be sure to thaw the food in the refrigerator and cook it thoroughly before eating.
On the other hand, if the canned food is left in a garage all winter and you find it in the spring, the cans may have been damaged by the freezing and thawing. Harmful bacteria could have entered the food, resulting in spoilage. In that case, you will want to toss it.
Scenario 2:
If frozen meat appears grayish, most likely the meat has been freezer-burned. Freezer burn is a form of dehydration, which results in discoloration and sometimes off-flavors. The quality loss doesn't necessarily mean the food is unsafe to eat, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service.
As long as the food was handled safely from the store to the home and remained frozen during storage, it is safe. However, freezer-burned food may not be appealing.
Freezer burn usually results from improper packaging, which allows oxygen to come into contact with the food. Ground beef may turn grayish. Whole poultry may retain its color but the bones may darken with extended frozen storage. Vegetables may suffer color, flavor and moisture losses.
Be sure to package food properly so you avoid wasting food. To preserve the quality of meat, use moisture/vapor-proof packaging material, such as freezer bags or freezer wrap. Seal the packages tightly and label with the name of the product, date and amount. You can find information about proper packaging of frozen food in the "Food Freezing Guide," a publication of the NDSU Extension Service, at www.ag.ndsu.edu/publications/landing-pages/food-and-nutrition/food-freezing-guide-fn-403.
Scenario 3:
You can refreeze food safely and without much quality loss if there are ice crystals present in the food. If the meat is fully thawed but you do not want to use it right away, cook it and freeze the fully cooked meat. Properly packaged cooked meat will retain its flavor and quality for about three months in frozen storage.
Be sure your freezer maintains a temperature of 0 F or lower. Keep an appliance thermometer in your freezer and check it periodically. Rotate your stock so you use the oldest food first.
Here's a quick and easy chili recipe to enjoy on a cold winter night. You also can make it ahead of time and freeze it in meal-sized portions.
½ cup chopped onion
½ pound lean or extra-lean ground beef
2 teaspoon chili powder
1 (16-ounce) can or 2 cups tomatoes, plain or stewed
1 (8-ounce) can or 1 cup tomato sauce
1 (15-ounce) can or 2 cups kidney beans, undrained

Dolphins Rewind: Offense happy with the win over Bengals, but not satisfied with performanceMonday, November 1st, 2010
CINCINNATI – Brian Hartline had every reason to smile Sunday afternoon in the post-game locker room.
Just 20 minutes earlier, his Dolphins finished their game against the Bengals in victory formation, taking a knee to seal their come-from-behind, 22-14 victory and pushing their record above .500 at 4-3.
About an hour earlier, Hartline made two huge plays on the Dolphins' game-clinching scoring drive – a 24-yard catch on a simple hitch pass, and a 30-yard end-around that brought the Dolphins down to the Red Zone.
And he did it in front of about 40 friends and family members, who had come from
Columbus and Canton and Dayton and various places around Ohio, the state where he grew up and starred in college.
When I entered the locker room after the game, Hartline was the first player I approached to talk about the offense. I congratulated him on the win and his two big plays. Hartline, though, wasn't focused on all of the positives on Sunday. He was still dwelling over the pass he dropped over the middle in the third quarter, which could have led to a huge gain and help put the game away earlier.
"What frustrates me still is we have a chance to completely put the ball away as an offense, and we didn't, we gave the ball back," Hartline said. "I knew I was open, I knew I was going to run after the catch, and I took my eyes off the ball for a split second and I made a mistake. I'll kick myself over and over again until, well, forever, over that one. You live and learn, and I won't make that mistake ever again."

Beach and Picnic Coolers
Beach Cooler enable you to carry food for your family outings. Beach coolers ensure that the food remains ready to be served without any preparation.
Now that one has made up his mind to head out for a picnic with friends or family, one would not want the heat to play havoc with the mood of the picnic. It is a usual scene that the food, liquids and the people themselves fall prey to the scorching heat making a nightmare out of the picnic. In a situation as this, picnic coolers can come to your relief. A picnic cooler, now-a-days is a must-have in a picnic. It saves the food from spoilage. Not just this, the coolers also allow the food to be served without any manual preparation. Picnic coolers have come a long way and over the years they have evolved into handy, useful and high-tech pieces of machinery that add more color and vibrancy to the party spirit. Gone are the days when picnic food would be carried to the beach in a basket. Beach coolers and picnic coolers have evolved into picnic backpacks, totes with cooler compartments and even rolling picnic coolers (with wheels attached for easy mobility).
Variety of Styles and Sizes
Picnic coolers come in a variety of styles and sizes. The choice of a cooler depends on the weather and the type of food to be carried. Following are the different types of coolers for the people to choose from-
- Basic picnic coolers: In the very basic sense, picnic coolers are designed to keep the hot air out and to keep the food cold and fresh. Now-a-days picnic baskets have an in-built feature of a picnic cooler.
- Ice-chest: By allowing the food to be put on ice, an ice-chest promises to keep the food fresh for a relatively longer period of time. Most suitable for beverages, an ice-chest offers a helping hand. It does have its own disadvantages. Its huge size and rather awkward look is the major drawback.
- Ice-chest sans ice: Now this sounds rather funny. Such a cooler needs to be plugged into an outlet to be able to make it work. It has similar size hassles as with ice-chests.
- High-tech picnic coolers: Nothing gets better than these. They have almost everything one would want them to have- a compartment to store utensils, separate pockets for hot food and cold food, barbeque grill and more. They are obviously costlier than other normal picnic coolers.
- Trolley kind coolers: Now if the whole family decides to go for a picnic, the size of the cooler required will be obviously big. Trolley kinds suffice to such needs. These can easily store some 15 bottles besides food. The superior quality ones are more durable and heat resistant. The wheels make it easier to carry them all along the picnic. They also provide for separate apartments for various needs.
- Tote bag cooler: If a still smaller bunch of people set out for a picnic, a tote bag promises to fulfill the requirements. They offer many advantages- they are comparatively cheap, they are very easy to carry, they come with a variety of waterproof chambers and last but not the least they look trendy. So, for a small picnic they are ideal coolers.
Coolers: Food for Thought
Beach Coolers enable you to prepare food for your family outing and ensure that it arrives at the beach and is ready to be served without any preparation. Present day coolers have an array of clips to secure plates, napkins and even a BBQ grill alongside thermally insulated compartments and pockets for hot or cold food or beverages. Not just limited to beach applications, coolers can also prove handy for trips to amusement parks, long drives and camping.
Cooler Than the Rest Our range of beach coolers and picnic coolers is meant to suit every kind or requirement: ⢠For shorter trips, you could use a collapsible cooler which regulates temperature for shorter periods of time. ⢠For longer picnics, we offer picnic cooler with electric temperature regulating systems that run a 12V DC thermoelectric cooling unit on a car battery power outlet. ⢠For the more energy conscious, we even have a solar-powered cooler. Built-in speakers and an iPod charging dock ensure that you can add music to the mood.

Numerous groups of researchers around the world are pursuing this idea. Their objective is to use sunlight for the production of hydrogen as an energy source, by means of artificial photosynthesis. Based on the template provided by nature, the rays of the Sun need to be captured and have their energy transferred to a catalyst. On the surface of this catalyst, water can then be split into its constituent elements of oxygen and hydrogen.
Climate-neutral production of hydrogen as an energy source
Many materials such as titanium disilicide and metal complexes containing ruthenium or cobalt oxide are suitable as catalysts. However, these materials are either too expensive or not stable enough for large-scale industrial applications. A Franco-American team of researchers has managed to stabilise the cobalt oxide catalyst with carbon-free ligands to form polyoxometallates. The yield was, however, too low to serve as the basis for viable hydrogen production. Chemists at the University of California in Berkeley were able to use a molybdenum-oxo-complex with a higher yield of 8500 hydrogen molecules per catalyst molecule. However, these catalysts are not yet at a suitable stage for engineering applications, because their efficiency rating started to decline after three days.
There are still a few hurdles along the road to artificial photosynthesis, which will need to be cleared over the next few years, but the efforts could reap rich dividends. This is because hydrogen will have a future as an energy source only if it can be obtained inexpensively and in a climate-neutral manner. In principle, this will be primarily through hydrolysis, which involves using electricity from renewable sources to split the water molecules. A current, cheaper, and therefore more widespread, method is the process of obtaining hydrogen from natural gas, a fossil fuel. Efficient artificial photosynthesis would have the potential to replace both of these conventional methods.
Using a different approach, one that does not involve using technology to copy the process of photosynthesis, DLR researchers at the Institute of Technical Thermodynamics are splitting water into its constituent elements. In the EU projects HYDROSOL I and II, a system installed at the Spanish Plataforma Solar de Almería makes it possible to split water molecules using concentrated sunlight at temperatures of 800–1200 degrees Celsius. This approach has the potential to economically produce hydrogen with the help of solar energy in the foreseeable future.
The DLR Energy question of the week in 'The future of energy' Year of Science
The Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) has given the Year of Science 2010 the motto 'The future of energy'. For this reason the science journalist Jan Oliver Löfken will this year answer a question on the subject of energy in his blog each week. Do you have a question about how our energy supply might look in the future? Or do you want to know, for example, how a wave power plant works and how it can efficiently generate electricity? Then send us your question by email. Science journalist Jan Oliver Löfken will investigate the answers and publish them each week in this blog.

If things have slightly shifted, and those pipes run through anything that got tight, as the temp changes, they expand or contract, and if 'caught' on anything, they can easily make clicking sounds. The same thing happens with plastic drain pipes as you say run a shower - you don't normally hear it while showering, but afterwards, as they cool off, it is not uncommon to hear them. The prevention is properly sized holes, and proper support. Harder to fix afterwards.

About six years ago, Nancy Brockman found herself in a predicament.
As leader of strategic events and incentives at GE Financial Assurance in Lynchburg, Va., Brockman had planned incentive trips for groups of insurance brokers to Morocco and Turkey in 1995 and to Indonesia and Thailand in 1990. The brokers had taken previous trips to China (in 1985) and Kenya (in 1980). Topping these destinations would be tough.
"Most of our brokerage agents are offered trips from other carriers," Brockman explains. "We had to offer something exotic to differentiate ourselves from the other life insurance companies."
Brockman decided to team up with Performance Enhancement Associates, a travel company in Waltham, Mass., that specializes in off-the-beaten-track incentive packages."We started off asking, 'Where in the world?'" says Colin Higgins, owner of Performance Enhancement.
"Where in the world?" led to South Africa, still a politically incorrect destination in the early 1990s. As time went on, however, more Americans began traveling there, and that was the break Brockman was hoping for. Over the next few years, she worked with Performance Enhancement to plan a South Africa trip that combined adventure and luxury.
"One of the primary attractions was the adventure aspect of the trip," says Higgins.
"Our target audience, the principals of the top insurance brokerage companies, have been everywhere," Brockman adds.
Culture, Adventure, History
For GE Financial Assurance, South Africa was the right combination of exotic and adventurous — and it was able to provide the high service levels demanded by U.S. incentive groups. Last April, Brockman's group of 275 insurance brokers started off in Cape Town for four days. While there, they visited vineyards, went hiking, took a city tour, and visited the prison where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated for 25 years.
But the real adventure came at the next stop on the itinerary: the game lodges. With so many attendees, Brockman had to split them among 14 different camps — no easy feat. "To move this many people, we had to fan out to different airports, and even had to charter planes," Higgins notes.
To make things more complicated, the month before the group's arrival, horrific floods washed away 25 rooms in one of the major game camps that Higgins and Brockman had booked. "We scrambled to find alternative accommodations and ended up having to go to five different game camps," says Higgins.
Once the groups arrived at their camps, they were in for the adventure of their lives. Each day, they boarded open, tiered-seating Range Rovers and were driven through acres of bush country. Lions, elephants, leopards, and Cape buffalo were among the many types of wild game that came so close to the vehicles that the adventurers could reach out and touch them, says Higgins. Of course, everyone was told not to stick their arms outside the trucks. Many animals, even lions, would simply brush by the vehicles and continue on their way.
"Sure, there's nothing to stop that lion from jumping in and having lunch," Higgins says. "But they are used to the vehicles and there is plenty of game to eat."
The "camps" are really more like upscale chalet-style hotels with stucco walls and real bathrooms. All meals are gourmet, and the park rangers even serve snacks and drinks in-between meals. "It was not roughing it," says Brockman.
"There is nothing like these camps in the U.S.," Higgins adds. "Being out there with the animals is something that leaves you speechless."
The April trip finished off in Sun City, a gaming and entertainment district whose centerpiece is the Palace of the Lost City hotel. "We wanted to get everyone back together so they could compare notes" on their experiences, says Brockman.
For the top qualifiers, however, this wasn't the end of the trip. They headed on to Pretoria, where they boarded the Rovos Rail luxury train to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. "It's the best rail experience out there today," Higgins says. "Each room has a king-size bed and private bathroom, and the train has world-class dining."
The smaller group took helicopter trips over Victoria Falls, and canoe trips down the Zambezi River, where they saw crocodiles, elephants, and hippopotamuses.
Brokers who went on the trip described the whole experience as "life-changing," Brockman says. "Many of them are planning to take trips back."
High Adventure in Idaho
Even if you don't jet off to South Africa, you can still think outside the box within the U.S. In fact, depending on the group, you can sometimes get way outside the box.
After researching many hotel programs, Rod Fox, CEO of re-insurance brokerage Benfield Greig Group PLC, chose Hidden Creek Ranch in Harrison, Idaho, as the site of a three-day strategy meeting for 25 executives last September. Hidden Creek Ranch offers several adventure-based programs for corporate and incentive groups that include a ropes course, cow-herding, hiking, mountain biking, and river fishing.
While it's a lot closer than Africa, Hidden Creek is still quite a trek — about a two-hour drive along windy roads from Washington's Spokane Airport. "There was a fair amount of risk in choosing Hidden Creek," says Fox. "A lot of our people were coming from the East Coast and it's a long trip."
Nonetheless, Hidden Creek was exactly what Fox wanted for his meeting — a remote and unique resort in a beautiful, spacious area. He also specifically wanted a property that offered a top-notch ropes course and a challenging environment. "I didn't want to go to a resort in Orlando that butted up against a parking lot," says Fox. "I wanted to go where we could basically take over the whole place. There was one other small group there, but we were able to isolate ourselves for meals."
Fox also added his own activities to those offered at Hidden Creek. For example, he brought along three ex-Navy SEALs to conduct intensive exercise routines — almost like boot camp. For example, the SEALs had the group doing push-ups in the lake and running up a nearby mountain. They also coached the team through the high-ropes course, a powerful teambuilding tool and strenuous activity.
Fox says his number-one goal was to provide a way for the group to bond. He also wanted the team to come away with better communication skills and the ability to work together more effectively. "It was successful," he says. "This was shock therapy."
Hidden Creek offers less-demanding programs as well: One of the most popular adventure programs with groups, says Iris Behr, the resort's owner, combines horseback riding with orienteering, a skill that teaches participants to read topographical maps. The ranch plans scavenger hunts where groups use their orienteering skills to find things on horseback.
The resort accommodates up to 48 guests in log cabins. Family-style dining takes place in the main lodge. Staff at Hidden Creek work with meeting planners and executives to tailor a company's experience to its needs and goals.
Choose Your Adventure
High-risk adventure travel attracts those who want to push themselves beyond their limits, says Jerry Mallett, president of The Adventure Travel Society in Salida, Colo., whereas "soft" adventure attracts a broader crowd looking for less physical risk. For incentive meetings, soft adventure is the way to go. Soft adventure activities — such as whitewater rafting, horseback riding, hiking, wildlife viewing, scuba diving, and mountain biking — are becoming increasing popular with groups, says Mallett.
For companies planning their first adventure trip, Mallett recommends staying in the U.S. Attendees will be closer to home, and there are fewer potential health risks involved when eating and drinking. Attendees also don't have to worry about getting preliminary vaccinations or catching unusual viruses.
Many travel companies specialize in adventure travel trips. One way to find them is by calling The Adventure Travel Society (719/530-0171) or visiting www.adventuretravel.com to check out its list of tour operators and contacts. Before selecting a company, however, Mallett recommends doing thorough research.
"Find out how long the operator has been in business, and ask what type of training the guides have," he says. For example, if you are planning to take a group whitewater rafting, you should be sure the guides have proper training in swift-water rescues. Mallett also recommends taking a doctor along. If the group is large, you may consider bringing more than one.
Once you've selected your destination and activities, educate your attendees. Tell them what to bring and what to wear. Be sure they're aware of all potential risks, ask them to fill out a pre-conference medical questionnaire, and have them sign waivers.
Do a Day Trip
Although adventure travel is becoming much more mainstream, many meeting planners are still reluctant to plan a trip to a remote or exotic location. Others are hesitant to include a full week of adventure activities when attendees are more accustomed to sun and surf or golf.
To take your first adventurous steps, consider adding a one-day adventure into a traditional incentive program. Several tour operators around the country offer half-day and full-day trips. These outfitters will pick up attendees at your meeting resort and take them on a variety of outings, such as hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, or rock climbing. Check with The Adventure Travel Society (see sidebar, [previous page) to find outfitters near your meeting site.
Ascend Adventures is a tour operator in one of the country's most popular incentive destinations — Scottsdale, Ariz. — that has experience leading corporate groups of 6 to 60 on outdoor excursions. This spring, Ascend took a group of 20 meeting attendees from the Scottsdale Princess on a rock climbing trip up Camelback Mountain, says Jack Yarnold, a group leader at Ascend.
Yarnold, a veteran climber who holds a doctorate in Arizona geology, works closely with Ascend founder Dr. Brannon Reed. Ascend also employs expert canyoneers, mountain bikers, canoeists, backpackers, cavers, and skiers.
One of Ascend's most popular outings is canoeing on the Verde River just south of Bartlett Dam. This four- to six-hour trip can be done in summer or winter and participants routinely see herons and bald eagles. You can plan a catered gourmet lunch to keep the incentive-trip feel.
Ascend will also incorporate cookouts, music, contests, or motivational speakers into group outings. "We tailor each trip to the specific organization," Yarnold says.
The Ascend team uses air-conditioned vehicles to transport participants, and has permits to some of the most spectacular canyons, rivers, and caves in Arizona. All Ascend guides are trained in CPR and first-aid and many have EMT certification. For more information, contact Ascend at (800) 227-2363 or see www.ascendadventures.com.

FAQs & Resources
When is the Writing Center open and do I need an appointment?
Desk Hours are when tutors are available at the Writing Center desk -- no appointment needed.
Monday-Thursday: 6 p.m. - 9 p.m.
If you want or need an appointment, just email email@example.com 48 hours in advance to set up one.
What is the Writing Center Policy on proof-reading and editing papers?
Proofing & Editing Policy The tutors will not write your paper for you. Their job is to help you improve your own writing skills by asking questions, by being an audience, by listening and asking you about what you want to say and then guiding you to say it effectively through process writing. They will help you to negotiate the several stages of writing such as prewriting, organization, revising, and editing.
The Writing Center does make accommodations for those with documented learning challenges or special needs.
What are some tips that will help me to write effectively?
Start Papers Early so that you aren't trying to write a fifteen-page paper the night before it's due. Not only is it stressful, but it limits the amount of help tutors can provide for you.
Manage your time wisely when writing a paper. Dividing the writing process into several smaller steps will make writing a paper less stressful and easier to do. This way, if you do get stuck at a certain point, tutors will be able to help you one step at a time.
Utilize prewriting to begin a paper and get your thoughts going. Use several different techniques until you find some you like the best. Brainstorming, free-writing, and clustering or mapping, cubing and dialoguing are just a few examples of invention strategies.
Read your written paper out loud to others to check for errors and cohesiveness. Listening to the work separates what you thought you said from what you actually said.
Utilize the resources you have at hand. Writing handbooks will often have answers to your questions about punctuation, grammar, citations, and several other things. Other answers to questions about correct usage, development of style, or grammar questions can be found on-line or at the Writing Center in our resource library or by conferencing with our tutors.
Revise your paper from large issues to smaller ones
Don't make punctuation or spelling a priority until you reflect upon what you are saying and how you are saying it. Revision= re-seeing what you want the reader to hear and know.

Why Biodiversity Matters
04 Jul 13
Close your eyes and picture a farm.
In your mind you may see a landscape with rows of different veggies, various fruit trees, and maybe a few cows or goats nibbling at the grass.
Wrong. The reality today is very different.
Over the past hundred years, the variety of seeds planted has dwindled from hundreds to just a handful. Animal diversity is suffering a similar fate. Large commercial farms that focus on specific animals or plants to maximize yields and profits have caused the variety in our food supply to plummet.
Today the human race relies on just three cereals - rice, wheat and corn - to provide for 60% of our caloric needs. In less than 100 years, we have lost three quarters of vegetable, fruit and legume varieties and a thousand breeds. Along with these plants and animals, we have lost hundreds of breads, cheeses, meats.
Why should we care? Well, we need biodiversity to grow food, or in other words, to survive.
If we only grew one type of corn, a plant disease could easily wipe it out. When there are many types of corn in a field, some may be resistant to the disease. Food security depends on resilient, diverse crops and animals being able to overcome diseases and the effects of climate change.
The diversity that keeps life going also applies to things like soil microbes that carry nutrients to a variety of insects and birds, who in turn pollinate valuable crops. These are adversely affected by the chemical pesticides and herbicides that often go along with industrial farming.
Meanwhile, it is small farmers, fisher folk and herders – among the poorest people in the world – who hold much of what's left of the world's biodiversity in their hands. Biodiversity offers more nutritional options, opportunities to raise incomes, a reservoir of plants to use for medicine, and most importantly a safeguard for our future food supply.
This new video from Slow Food tells the story of why biodiversity is important for our food and our future.
What can you do?
To move forward, Slow Food is focusing not on what we have lost, but on what we can still save.
To help protect biodiversity and food cultures, everyone is invited to nominate a product to the Slow Food Ark of Taste - our catalogue of edible plants, breeds and products linked to specific regions that are at risk.
This biodiversity project launched by FAO in partnership with Slow Food highlights some of our Presidia projects in Africa, working with communities to continue and improve traditional food production.

I'm Not Stealing Your Stuff
I'm Not Stealing Your Stuff A lot has been said and done recently regarding SOPA and PIPA. Wikipedia and a number of other sites blacked out on Wednesday, January 18, in…
Palmdale, CA, États-Unis
I'm a driven programmer, obsessed with great-looking user interfaces and learning new things. I tend to agonize over details and think that user experience is critical to making a great piece of software.
I knew that I wanted to work with computers when I took an introductory "computer literacy" course in junior high school and experienced the Commodore 64 for the first time.
décembre 2010 - Actuel
Started an independent Mac software company.
The first product was a free RPG encounter tracker that supports Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder game systems, allowing the game master to track participants in the encounter as it progresses. The application is available on the website and on the Mac App Store.
The second product is an iOS app, called Horology. It's a date/time calculator (compare two dates to find the difference, or calculate a date from a starting date by adding to it) and converter (e.g., find out how many seconds are in 3 weeks, etc.).
The third product is an iOS app, called Yawp. It's a client for the social networking service App.net. It supports the standard features of the App.net API, and is designed around a fun, not-too-serious Viking theme.
The fourth product, which is currently in development, is a homeschool management application. It provides a means for the homeschool teacher to plan out the school year, monitor student progress, schedule events, and keep track of curriculum and resource expenses. It is scheduled to be released some time in 2013.
janvier 2013 - Actuel
Part of a small team responsible for designing and developing a service platform to support social games based on DreamWorks Animation movies. The platform includes services for security, identity management, commerce, content, messaging, and integration with vendor services such as Apple Push Notifications and In-app Purchasing.
Also responsible for creating an iOS analytics library used by client applications of this service platform.

Our primary web application is a resource management system for allocating artist and other creative personnel during movie production.
I have developed integration components that link our human resources system to the movie production system so that personnel information is kept synchronized, as well as web services that allow animation tools to access the personnel information.
février 2005 - octobre 2009
I created internal tools and integration components to tie business applications together, and worked on customizations for our internal systems.
I was the primary developer responsible for customizations for our internal Configuration Management Database, a system called Service-Now. I dealt primarily with extending the system and writing business rules to govern the system.
I was a primary architect and developer for our internal vehicle publishing system that powered the Edmunds.com website, using Oracle BPEL and Enterprise Service Bus.
janvier 2000 - août 2003
I was primarily responsible for managing the Tier 2 Technical Support team, who were responsible for application and operating system administration for our shared and dedicated hosting servers.
I was also responsible for managing the Domain Name System servers and IP address allocation system for the company.
février 1999 - décembre 1999
I was responsible for coordinating and performing Y2K systems updates for all of our client libraries.

Amiga OS 3.9
I'm a mostly self-taught programmer. I started inputting BASIC programs into my Timex Sinclair 1000, then moved to the Commodore 64 and 128, where I wrote programs in BASIC and hand-coded machine language using a memory monitor. (I even got the point where I had the machine codes memorized; not the assembly language mnemonics, but the actual hexadecimal machine codes.)
I moved to the Amiga, owning an Amiga 2000 for nearly 9 years. I taught myself to program in C, and wrote an email client (called Eucalyptus, in honor of the Unix text email clients "pine" and "elm") from scratch during my tour of duty in Korea while in the Air Force. I also had the opportunity to work on one of the system libraries supporting sending and reading email for Amiga OS 3.9.
I also programmed several utilities for the Air Force during my time there, mostly for Unix systems, and using the curses library for its UI.
I dabbled with application programming in Linux, almost starting a port of Eucalyptus to that platform.
I spent some time as a systems administrator after getting out of the military, and learned to program in Perl and Unix shells.
I started learning Java, and moved back into professional software development, doing systems integration using Oracle's ESB and BPEL, and helped design the data publishing systems at Edmunds.com.
While I lack a formal computer science education, I'm constantly driven to learn new technologies and expand my knowledge.
